“Don’t ever underestimate teachers.” - Tim Walz

"The Harris-Walz team will build on the Biden administration’s legacy as the most labor-friendly administration in history and will continue to grow our economy from the bottom up and the middle out." -@rweingarten aft.org/press-release/…

Like Vice President Harris, Governor @Tim_Walz believes that government works to serve us. Not just some of us, but all of us. That’s what makes him an outstanding governor, and that’s what will make him an even better vice president. Michelle and I couldn’t be happier for Tim and Gwen, their family, and our country.

Congrats @Tim_Walz! As Governor his record has been exemplary including record funding for public education, protecting reproductive rights, expanding collective bargaining, access to affordable childcare & paid family and medical leave. @KamalaHarris made a great choice!!

That moment when you’re a union president, and find out that a teacher and union member is going to be the next vice-president. We’re excited for former public school teacher & AFT member @Tim_Walz to join @KamalaHarris on the ballot this November! 📸@rweingarten #AFTvotes

Did you miss @rweingarten's State of the Union address at our 88th biennial convention? You can listen to the full speech in a special episode of the Union Talk podcast. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/uni…

We have one job between now and Election Day: Elect @KamalaHarris as President of the United States. We can do this. Time to put in the work.

Second Gentleman @DouglasEmhoff: Mr. Trump, I know you have so much trouble pronouncing Kamala Harris’ name. Here’s the good news. After the election, you can just call her Madam President

To our amazing PC SM 2024 Team - Your work was creative and effective! We appreciate your contributions to the success of the AFT Progressive Caucus, its leadership and its message, and hope to work again with you, soon! Sincerely, Eric, LaBrina, Liz, Jeff, Mark and Viri

To those who never wavered, to those who refused to doubt, to those who always believed, my heart is full of gratitude. Thank you for the trust you put in Joe—now it’s time to put that trust in Kamala. Love, Jill

Here’s the original story I flagged in my @AFTunion speech below: Betsy DeVos said the problem with Michigan’s economy was that our workers were paid too much. freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1…
